honor and keep him
in sickness and in health
and forsaking all other,
keep thee only unto him
so long as you both shall live?
Mmm-hmm.
Yeah, I will.
Who giveth this woman
to be married to this man?
I do.
Please join right hands.
The wedding ring is

Do you two have rings?

a nightgown over your clothes.
I'm freezing, Doo.

(WHISPERS) Go on, Loretty.
Go on!
Move. Go on, now.
(SIGHS)
Get off.
Don't do that.
Don't! Doo, no!
It's just a little rough the

Hell's bells, Loretta, do
you think this is something
the rest of the world

They don't give a damn.
Baby, it's just a little rough
the first time, that's all.
Didn't seem too rough on you.
Well, you better get
used to it, darling,
because that's what
a damn marriage...
I ain't gonna get used to you getting
on me and sweating like an old pig!
You told Daddy you wouldn't hit
me and look at you already.
Well, hell, I'm sorry, Loretta,
but you drove me to it!

Look here at this. These
radios are on sale real cheap.
You reckon we could get us one?
(GROANS)
Here, you read that.
Then we'll talk radios.
My gosh, Doo, this has
got pictures in it.
Ugh!
(WHISTLES)
Here, dog.
(BARKING)
Oh, Loretty, that there book,
that thing's helped millions
I thought it might
do us a little good.
I can't read this book, Doo. It's got
all 'em great big ol' words in it.
Look at this one. Look.
That dadgum word
is a foot long.
Now, what's a foot-long
word supposed to mean, huh?
(GROANING)
Oh, Doo, I don't need no book
to tell me what's wrong.
You just need to be
a little more patient
and gentle with me,
honey, that's all.
I just need a little more time.
Give you a little more time.
Well, let me add up
all these damn things
I'm supposed to give
you some more time on.
You need a little more time
to learn how to cook.
You need a little more time to
learn how to clean the damn house.
Plus you need
a little more time to learn
how to love your man
the way you're supposed to.
Goddamn, is there anything that
you know how to do right now?
Doo, when you gonna get me
that wedding ring?
(GROANS)
Stop making that noise.
You sound like an old bear growling.
Where are you going?
Doo, are you leaving?
No, I ain't leaving.
PEGGY SUE:
Mommy,look who's here! Loretta!
(HORSE SNUFFLING)
LORETTA:
Hi. Hi, Peggy.Hi, Donald.
Look who's here, Dad!
Hi, Mommy.
Doo's thrown me out, Mommy.
Oh, thank the Lord.
Maybe it ain't too late
to save you from
ruining your life.
Loretty, you home!
Hi, Daddy.
Mmm!

(CHUCKLES)
Oh, no.
GIRL:
F, O, D...Ready, Loretta?
The last time I seen you
I was giving you kids
a shot for the measles.
Here you are an old married woman.
How do you like it?
Fine.
Except me and Doo is separated.
Things happen pretty fast between
you and Doo, don't they?
(HORN HONKING)
Hey!
Hold up there.
Hey, Doolittle, how are you?
Good day, isn't it?
It sure is.
What have you been doing?
No, not a hell of a lot. Working
too goddamn hard. What about you?
Hey, Doolittle Lynn.
Who's that sow
wallowing in your jeep?
What did you call me?
A sow.
That's a woman pig.
(LAUGHING)
Hi, Loretta, I just...
Hey, Loretta!
Hey, Loretta!
I was just fixing to come see you.
Was you gonna bring
your girlfriend with you?
Oh, hell, that don't mean nothing.
She just flagged me down.
I got something
to tell you, girl.
Yeah, I got something
to tell you, too.
Loretta, I am leaving Kentucky.
I'm going out west
to Washington
to get me a job on
a ranch or something.
That damned ol' coal mine's
got me buried alive.
Was you just gonna leave me?
Just long enough to get the
money to send for you.
What makes you think I'd come?
'Cause you're my wife, darling.
I'm your wife! Boy, you better think
There ain't nothing for me
in Kentucky, Loretta.
Except a chest
full of coal dust
and being an old man
time I'm 40.
You ask your daddy.
'Sides that, you got to
come with me, I love you.
You promised Daddy you wouldn't
take me off far from home.
Well, you just have to
make up your mind, darling,
whether or not you're
his daughter or my wife.
Get in. I'll take
you back to the house.
What are you doing
in the bottom anyhow?
I come to see Doc Turner.
You sick?
Yeah, I'm gonna have a baby.
(LAUGHING)
Oh, Lord, Loretta.
You know, darlin', you
might have found something
that you know how to do.
(CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)
It's from Doo, Daddy!
He sent me the money
to come to Washington.
Well, she's late. Reckon she
might have jumped the tracks.
Oh, Daddy, them things don't do that.
Do they?
They've been known to.
Get up here.
Let's see what you weigh.
117?
Boy, Daddy, this baby's gonna be a
big one, ain't it? You weigh now.
It wouldn't do no good.
I wouldn't know
how much was me,
how much was all that
coal dust I swallowed.
(TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWING)
I ain't never
gonna see you again.
Yes, you will, Daddy.
Maybe. But I ain't never gonna
see my little girl again.
Them years has
been robbed from me,
and robbed 'em.
(BELL RINGING)
(BRAKES SCREECHING)
WOMAN ON RADIO:
(SINGING)As I listen to the words
You are saying
It brings memories
When I was a trusting wife
It wasn't God
Who made honky tonk angels...
Thank you, Betty Sue.
As you said in the words
Of your song
Ernest Ray, your daddy
is gonna wear you out
when he gets home.
...married men
think they're still single
DOOLITTLE:
Y'all scared of the rain?You ain't gonna melt.
Let's go to work, boys.
Come here, boy. Come here.
Come here, my little...
(BARKS)
Daddy, Daddy!
How you doing, Bo?
Hello, darlin'.
Come here, baby.
(GRUNTS)
What did you do all day, baby?
Well, I put up 17 quarts
of this apple butter.
And, Doo,
And I spent half
the morning fixing that.
